Scott,
Thanks for the info.? Looks like Qcharts is just what I need.? Can I
assume that just looking at the typelib of their OCX is sufficient for figuring
it out, or is their some docs?
?

I am using the Qcharts OCX and Qcharts
feed. I am not part of the QDP
developers group...too expensive...but I am
a paying member for their
regular live data service.
I have their
OCX and have code that calls for the data. There OCX
registers as a result
of Qcharts installation, and the object,
property and method syntax can be
had.
There has been change in the wind at Q with the switch from Qfeed
to
QDP for deveolopers, and on top of that, you will still need a Live
Data subscription. QDP is delayed, but also includes 24 hour
simulators allowing for testing outside of normal market
hours....
QDP has an initiation fee of 300 bucks, costs 160 bucks a
month, and
you will need another 80-150 for live data per month! Can you
believe
that?
Qcharts and Lycos Pissed alot of people off when they
instituted the
QDP program....I understand quite a few folks just said
screw it and
either abandoned QCharts data for further developement, or
bailed
altogether....
You can also grab DDE data from Q if you want
under the normal
subscription....thier DDE feed and thier XLS plug-in do
not use VBA
from what I can tell...it looks like all XLS type
scripts...
Of course you will need Qcharts membership...starts at 80
bucks +
exchange fees. Emini is available for 10 bucks.
TAL has an
excellent developers program, and a very reliable feed
from what I
understand...more than I can say for Q. Bit pricey
though.
